Yuengling® is proud to offer our Oktoberfest as an homage to our German Heritage. A true representation of the style, Oktoberfest is a blend of Tettnang and Hallertau hops. Copper in color, this medium-bodied beer is the perfect blend of roasted malts with just the right amount of hops that serves up a slightly-sweet, toasted character and mild herbal bitterness.

Can to shaker. Pours a dark amber with 1 finger quickly dissipating cream white head. Aroma is light, bready malt. Flavor is caramel forward with some light hop finish, the caramel lingers a bit. Light bodied, the carbonation is a bit high for my liking. Decent Oktoberfest offering.

Like a carbonated butterscotch candy. Very malty and on the sweet side, but the texture is good and it never grows cloy. Better than expected.

Bottle. Burnt toast taste, more so than most Oktoberfest. Really liked it. Aroma is maltly, with a really nice nutty aroma. Amber color, some head and lace.

Pour is a clear copper with a large tan head. Aroma is a decent enough toasted bready malt. Flavor is more bready malt with a little sweet caramel kick at the end. A little thin but pretty good for a mass produced marzen.

Pours clear amber. It’s sweet and malty with caramel and a little hops to balance it. It’s nothing special but it’s an adequate Oktoberfest.

Pours reddish amber with a thin creme colored head. Aroma of grainy malt, barley. Taste has a caramel malt base, more graininess, mineral spirits. Palate has thin watery body, more caramel on the nose. Eh.

It's baaack! Pours a clear deep bronze color with an off white head and very good retention. Decent lacing. Caramel malt aroma. Clean and smooth mouthfeel. Low carbonation. Medium body. No bitterness. Straightforward caramel lager flavor. Tasty and repeatable.
